16 Pro to 17 Core? Recommend?

At the moment I can't spare the price for 17 pro. I do have 16 pro, however. By the way, Zorin is the best OS of all time in my opinion!

This is my first Linux experience, and I'm never going back.

Is there a way to upgrade to base without losing my files and not having to back anything up on an external storage device? Thank you, I'm a Linux noob 100%.

In my zorin upgrade tool I only have the option for 17 pro. 17 education is really what I want.

Hi and welcome to the Forum,
The more often asked question is upgrade from Core to Pro, but you are not alone.
Maybe worthwhile having a look at this thread: Can I Upgrade From Zorin16 Pro to 17 Core?
